Overview & Reviews

An upgraded four-speaker sound system is now standard on SE models, while an MP3 player is standard on uplevel GT models and optional on all others except the base SE.

• Lots of standard features, available five-speed manual transmission, crisp handling.

• Price has crept up in recent years, five-speed not available with V6, cheap interior pieces, iffy crash test scores.

  Fun car! - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By CarolD - December 29 - 2:00 am

  This is a very fun car to drive. Performance is very good for a 4 cylinder. Its a nice family car with sporty looks. Rebate make it a nice alternative to many smaller compact cars.

  Security system light probs - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By sjclark - December 11 - 1:56 pm

  I have loved my car for the last 5 years i have had it, but then slowly I am starting to have probs. The security light flashes and I do the "10 minutes, keep your key in the ON position" and it goes back to normal. I did have to finally replace the pass lock cylinder which GM swears they are the only ones that can fix this. $500 later its fixed, but its been 3 years and I am starting to have those probs again! Very frustrating. Other than this issue, I love my car.

  great car - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By jameshorton4 - December 6 - 9:38 am

  had this GA 04 for 10 yrs. got it with 19000 miles on it. So far, had to replace the master/slave cylinder-due to defective master-trailing arm,due to hydroplaning into ditch. and now its getting close to 200000 miles and its starting to crunch shifting to third. guess its time to change the syncros. been a great car. excellent handling and mileage for gas. dont know if its worth the expense or time to change them. but it has been an awesome car. I put it through a lot of stuff over the last ten years. would def get another one like it.

  2004 Grand Am 260K plus and keeps on going! - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By mikiejay21 - November 11 - 10:07 pm

  I have had my 2004 Pontiac Grand Am for 6 years now and I still love it! Up until this week, ive never had a problem until the climate control went out. Turns out that I blew out the blower motor, and blower motor resistor, along with the circuit breaker. It was about an $800.00 repair which isnt bad considering how many miles were on the car. Other than that, no major problems at all, and it still runs like its brand new!

  Great Grand Am GT - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By GrandAmGT - October 22 - 2:30 pm

  I see some reviews saying that their car (having been bought used) isnt reliable...well some upkeep is required to keep a car moving (duh)...Mine has been great with only the expected items (brake pads, spark plugs) being replaced. Has never failed to start and has the original battery (04) in it. Dont blame the manufacturer if you bought a used car and it isnt up to par---maintain it! Ive changed plugs and brake pads and thats it for replacement items. Proper oil changes will do wonders....

  2004 Pontiac Grand Am SE 4 cyl (Automatic) - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By teh_banditto - October 11 - 3:08 pm

  Frankly, I do not believe the negative commenters, I have had mine for 14 months, and it has been a very reliable vehicle, granted I have ran into some rarely occuring transaxle problems, otherwise its a strong, car with a peppy motor

  This Grand Am is a LEMON!!!!! - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Smom - September 30 - 10:00 am

  This 2002 Grand Am GT was an awesome car until it got approx. 25,000miles on it. I have had nothing but problems with the brakes, and I have had it in the dealership 8 times until they have just recently fixed the problem, unfortunately it took them 8 times to get it right. I would never recommend the Grand Am to anyone, and I have owned another Grand Am before.

  great college/college grad car - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By midwesterner - August 27 - 12:13 am

  I love this car. I use to drive a hyundai tiburon which looked great but drove awful. After test driving 8 cars I had to have the grand am. It drives so smoothly and sometimes i dont even realize i just went around curves. My gas mileage is 24 mpg (both city and highway miles) while my old car (a 4cyl.) was only getting 27. I also love how the radio stays on after you take the keys out. Before I get out of the car I leave the cd playing my favorite song and eight hours later I turn on my car to find my favorite song. I just got a chance to drive it in the snow and it handled really well. I was worried because i hate antilock brakes in snowy weather.
